Professional Tree Planting Services
Planting a tree is more than just digging a hole—it’s an investment into your property and the environment. At Woodland TreeWorks, we ensure your trees are planted correctly to promote healthy growth, stability, and longevity. Unlike general landscapers, our Licensed and Certified Arborists bring expert knowledge to every tree planting project.
Why Hire an Arborist Instead of a Landscaper?
While landscapers may plant trees, only a Licensed and Certified Arborist understands the science behind proper tree establishment.
Such benefits include:
- Proper root depth and placement to prevent girdling roots and instability
- Species selection based on soil, climate, and location for long-term success
- Correct planting techniques to reduce transplant shock and promote healthy establishment
- Preventative care to avoid future structural issues and costly removals
Notice these planting issues that were discovered by our team of Arborists.
The Wire basket from the nursery holding the soil around the root ball was never removed. This lead to issues that eventually resulted in tree death.
This tree was planted too deep and caused the tree to struggle during some dry times.
A poorly planted tree can struggle for years—let us do it right the first time!
Precision Planting with Air-Powered Tools
Digging near underground utilities requires special care. We can use air-powered excavation tools to:
- Safely remove soil without damaging gas, water, or electrical lines
- Minimize root disturbance for nearby trees and plants
- Ensure a precise and secure planting location
This advanced method protects both your property and your tree’s health.
Root Barrier Installation – Protecting Sidewalks & Hardscapes
Tree roots can damage sidewalks, driveways, and foundations over time. Using a root barrier installation during the planting process can eliminate this issue.
It works by:
- Guiding root growth away from hardscapes
- Preventing costly repairs due to lifting or cracking
- Supporting tree health without restricting essential root development
- Removing the need for root pruning years later
Heavy duty rubber material is installed at least 18" down. These images show the barrier being installed on one corner of an in ground pool to protect against a nearby Oak Tree's roots.
Choosing the Right Tree for the Right Place
Not all trees thrive in every location. Our Arborists can help you select the perfect tree based on:
- Soil type and drainage conditions
- Mature height, canopy spread, and growth habits
- Sunlight exposure and available space
- Desired benefits—shade, privacy, aesthetics, or wildlife habitat
With expert guidance, your new tree will grow strong and healthy for generations.
